A Process of Reasoning Which Secured

"Patrick Flanagan" said the district
attorney, one day in court, "stand up
and plead guilty or not guilty to tho
charge preferred against YOU"
When Pat had complied with the
polite request thus made by the officer
of the law, the attorney proceeded to
read from a paper in his hand very
graphic description of a certain trans
action in which Pat had been engaged
few days before.

not guilty?"
'Tm not guilty OF half thin things
you've read to me-" said Pat, looking
at the court, "but did have bit of a
row last Saturday was a week; and L
dunno just what did, for, you see, L
was stavin' drunk on the meanest corn
whisky yer Honor liver tasted"
But Patrick, we never taste it."
said the judge, while smile lurked
behind the grave judicial countenance.
"Sure, now, don't We thought" said
Pat, with a look OF mingled surprise
and incredulity, ''well, then, We ought
to jist once, to know how it acts, and
to know how to pity poor fellow that
does. Sure, yer Honor grants licenses.
an how do We know the mischief yer
dom to honest men like mesef unless
We take drink now and thin just to
see how it makes a man behave his
self?''
"Who gave you the liquor, Patrick"
asked the court.

said Pat, too honest to turn informant,
while a CLEAN of true native humor
twinkled in his eye. "But know l
seed license hangin' behind the bar.
Ye see, Judge, I was working for the
city, on the streets jist close by, an
was thirsty, an it was so handy whit

'But," said the court, ''you are

This was a process of reasoning new

A Disastrous Night Blaze

CHICAGO, Ills, Nov. 7.-OVer one
hundred guests occupying six floors of
the Saratoga European hotel, on Dear
born street, " ere aroused from their beds
shortly before o'clock this morning by
the ringing OF the electric fire alarm in
their rooms. The smoke was pouring
through the halls and cries of fire"
were heard on every landing.
An Understandable panic ensued.
Very few stopped to secure
their clothing or valuables. Women
and men fled through tue halls down the
stsirways and out into the streets. clad
In their night clothes. The Gathering of
the fire engines aroused the occupants
Of several hotels in the neighborhood,
and the excitement became Intense. One
man, Harry Hammond. night clerk of
the hotel, descended from the sixth
story by a fire escape. The other inmates
tumbled over each other down stairs IN
their hurry to escape. The fire had
started in the kitchen OF the Saratoga
restaurant, on the first floor, and rapidly
spread through the building, ascending
to the top at the rear by means OF q ven.
tilator. The night clerk of the hotel,
Thomas McFadden, saw the smoke, ran
into the hall and gave the alarm. Short.
ly after the arrival Of the fire en-
CINE, second alarm was sent In.
The flames were then high above the
roof OF the seventh story, and threaten
ing the Journal building, and the Wind
sor hotel. Half an hours hard work snb-
dued the fire sufficiently to allow two
truck companies to hoist their lad iers
and make search of the rooms. Ii was
at first believed that some of the guests
had been caught 10 the fire, but none
were found. About quarter of three,
after several engines had been
dismissed. The fire broke out
afresh, on the top floor, and in a short
while the entire seventh story was
ablaZe, with strong breeze tanning ii
in the direction OF The journal building.
The rear from the lower floor clean to
the root was also ablaze. At 3 O'Clock
the fire was entirely under control. The
hotels in the vicinity were overrun with
frightened guests from the Saratoga, in
all stages of deshabille. Many
narrow escapes are related but no lives
were lost. Several travelling men crawl.
ed down three flights of stairs In O faint
ing condition, overcome by smoke.
The origin Of the fire is unknown.
Total damage to the building and furni-
ture about $4,000.

THE GOVERNMENT WINS.

The Brown and Van Meter Case De-
cided Against the Plaintiffs.
The case OF Brown and Van Meter VS..
the United States, was concluded this
morning, by which the complainant
sought to recover 300 mares seized by
the government for non-payment Of
duty, the mares being exempt from
duty, having been imported for breed.
Ing purpose. The government denied
that the mares were imported for the
purpose named, and proved that some
OF the mares had been sold and others
offered for sale. The plaintiff Submitted
the sale, claiming that they were com.
PEELED to dispose Of the mares sold ow-
ing to the drOuth, which then reigned In
that section.
Considerable evidence was ad-
duced on both sides, but in the
end the jury returned a verdict for the
government. The claimants have taken
an appeal to the circuit court, but the
chances are that the verdict will stick
There is one peculiarly about this
case that Is remarkable. In the Hine-
josa case Of similar kind reported in
the LIGHT, the same jury tried the suit.
Although the facts are almost the same
the jury awarded the mares to HinejOsa,
but in this case the government gaiR the
verdict. There are several cases of a
like character in the court and this lat
ter decision is likely to affect them.

relation to Rev, j. G. Kimball, the pas

his Sunday sermon, comparing the Chi
cago anarchists with the Savior. Since
the sermon the public has shown its dis
approval of the course taken by Pastor
Kimball, and there will be call for his
resignation. He has been pastor eight
years, and Is prominent in the Unitarian

opening he said: 1.-The words we're
written of an event which occurred more

is now wOrshipped throughout a large
part Of christendom as another God, and
yet how accurately they described what

AMATEUR OPERA.

MERRY war; as OlNen Dy Local
Company Last Night.
Johann Strauss comic opera OF Merry
War" which has been one Of the fAvo-
rite oper as for the best opera companies
IN the world, was given very successful
ly last night at Turner hall by strong
amateur company, composed OF the best
musical talent OF the city. The hou Q
was well filed and the rendition OF the
opera certainly deserved it. The SOLO
lists were well schooled In their notes
and the voices OF Miss rruax as the
Princess Of Malsspina, Miss Meal
lister as the Countess Lomellini.
Mr.. w. Rote as Bsltsssar, and Miss
Hernandez as Else, his wife, and Mr..
Adolf Boccius, as the Marohese Sebas-
tisni, were excellent and their singing
was well received by the audience, who
encOred them several times. The chorus
WAS good, too, aud sang with full round
voice, so different from the usual fright
ened style OF amateur choruses. Miss
Lulu McAllister's first solo called forth
great applause and she received beau
tiful bouquet as a testimonial from the
audience. Her duet with the tenor OF
Prof. Morris as Umberto, was fine.

was full and well mOdulated. He sang
his lines correctly and put the full
meaning in them..he gave general salts

not strong, pleased everybody by his
original cOmicalities and drew forth
storms OF applause. His duet with Mise
Hernandez carried away the audience in
pleasure. The opera will be repeated
tonight, and q well filled house should

THE STREET CAR ORDERS.

How they are Viewed by those Who
Ought to Know and the Public.
The announcement In the LIGHT Of
the orders made by the public improve
ment committee upon the street car
company created some excitement In
the city. As regards the grading OF
San Pedro avenue and putting the line
in general repairs, it is generally admit
ted that the or ders are polite, but there
is difference Of opinion in the legality
Of the city's demand for the removal of
the street car track upon West Com
merce street. Colonel Belknap has
had his hands full just now and Is silent,
but he will probably be heard from
later. His friends claim that while the
city In granting the privileges to the
street car company that they now en-
joy except Commerce street, the street car
company, in laying the cars upon West
Commerce street, did not infringe the
city's rights inasmuch as at that time
the street was known by another name
and that the laying of the track here
was perfectly Legitimate and until now
no objection has been raised. To re-
move the car track, as proposed, will
occasion much loss and Inconvenience
to the public and 1t is likely to be much
opposed. Some friends assert that the
orders recently issued are not of neces-
sity but as retort for the grand iury's
TRADE against the city police, of which
Col. Belknap as foreman Of the grand
jury is the mOuth-piece.

Death-Blow to the Abb Theory.
Sioux CITY. Ia, Dec. 3-Yesterday was
one of the most important in the trial of
John Arensdorf for the murder of Rev.
George c. Haddock. A large number of
witnesses were examined, contradicting
and tmpeaching the main witnesses for
the defense. The climax was reached
when Hon. Byron Webster, of Dubuque,
United States revenue collector. took the
stand and testified that from about
10 o'clock till the fatal shot was fred on
the night of the murder he was In the
Shepherd saloon and restaurant; that he got
his supper there, and that Arensdort was
not there. The evidence was positive The
importance of this evidence consists in the
fact that the Shepherd saloon is the place
where Arensdorf located himself at the mo-
ment of the murder, and for some time be-
fore, and is the vital point OF the alibt
